<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>

Xymon programs use multiple environment variables beside the
normal set of variables.  For the Xymon client, the environment 
definitions are stored in the ~xymon/client/etc/xymonclient.cfg file. 
Each line in this file is of the form <B>NAME=VALUE</B> and defines
one environment variable NAME with the value VALUE.
